Was he right?
>>748868680>Play shit that fits what you would want to play>Has funTruly a deep revelation
I've always done that but I still engage in the discourse, no fanbases or whining from any political group will make me play a game I'm not interested in or not play a game I'm interested in
>stop letting yourself get advertised toyes
>>748868680I'm sure life is much easier if you have no standards. Might as well give yourself a lobotomy
>>748868680No one but you cares about this game.
Someone post that image of the two guys on the bus where plays vidya while interacting with the fandom and the other does not.When you stop caring about the opinon meta or even the need to have opinions on everything over playing vidya then it becomes fun again.
>>748868680this idea is right, but it won't magically make 90% of games fun
That post would be more convincing if it wasn't accompanied by a screenshot of the latest AAA now featuring George Floyd from the DEI series.
>>748868680>don't believe the lies of internet retardsHe's finally free.
>>748868680Yes,now pay me for shilling your trash,kike
>>748868680Not to say that particular game is any good but reactionaries have become utterly fucking unhinged in the modern dayOpinions are formed in the first two seconds of viewing something and context doesn't matter when the only objective is vitriol
>>748868867>When you stop caring about the opinon meta or even the need to have opinions on everything over playing vidya then it becomes fun again.Yeah just as an example I played Bioshock Infinite as a kid and I really enjoyed it, it was only as an adult when I started browsing this place and other cesspools like twitter, reddit, etc. that I learned that it's actually very problematic/woke and I'm actually a heckin fascist/communist for liking it.
>>748868838>>748868884Posts like these are literally what the picture in the OP is talking about.
>>748868937its just very mediocre all around compared to the OG
>>748868937>I played Bioshock Infinite as a kidunderageb&
>>748868680Sure but the game is total shit.
>>748869025Buddy I'm 30 years old. Infinite came out in 2013.
>>748868680>90% lol no. Just because I don't care about the opinions of retards doesn't mean I don't have standards. Most games are still trash.
>>748868680I have my guilty pleasures but I don't defend it. Being this bothered about the reality that not every game you enjoy is the best game ever or even a good game only occurs to the most mentally raped individual on this planet. It's okay to admit that you have shit taste.
>>748868680>phone screenshot of your own postKill yourself.
>>748868937> I played Bioshock Infinite as a kid and I really enjoyed itGrim, the game was fucking awful. Easily the worst shock game.https://youtu.be/l_u18_BKczg?is=QTiLrhOPdA2MJ-O3
>>748868680>get towards what I'm hoping is near the end of the game>The Weight shows up againOf course it did. Why is this thing so much worse than Pyrymid Head or Mr. X? Tell me I get to shove it into a trash compactor or something.
>>748868680>just play shit that looks interesting based off gameplay/trailers
>>748868680I participate in every /v/ shitflinging but still play and enjoy whatever I want.So I'm having double the fun as that guy and he's a retard.
>>748868680>Just pay $80 without knowing it it's good or not!No.
>>748868680Yes. Because culture war faggots are trying to trick you into thinking woke = bad, when woke is just.. something that a piece of media can be regardless of quality. The way they trick you:1:Anything that the right/far right doesn't like can be labeled "woke". Blacks, Women beating men, LGBT are the obvious ones, but even stuff like quip humor, a female character not being model tier sexy, or a man being depicted as evil / a buffoon. 2: realize that a large majority of media coming out sucks, is made without love, without art, and just shit out in a conveyor belt factory fashion. 3: Combine the fact that almost anything can be woke, with the fact that a lot of stuff sucks. See a piece of media that sucks? Look for something that can be labeled "woke" in it. 4: Keep showing "woke" and "bad" together, and insist one is the cause of the other, without ever actually proving a causal relation. It's all correlation, no causation baybeeee.That's why they teach their audiences to "notice things" and talk about "pattern recognition". Because they don't have any actual proof that the "woke" is what made the piece of media bad. So they need to train away that part of their audiences brain that asks: "Okay but HOW is Harley killing Batman the reason Suicide Squad is such a bad slop game?" They can NEVER ask that or the grift falls apart. So the emphasis is always on FINDING wokeness, NEVER on explaining why the wokeness is a problem beyond "I don't like wokeness". And of course once you stop listening to that shit, you can enjoy actually decent games that feature blacks, and gays and women, without having a meltdown, while avoiding open world games as a service multiplayer battle pass slop and pretending the reason it sucks, is because there's rainbow flags in the game.
>>748868937All the BioShock games except 2 are Jewish resentment screeds from the game's director. He didn't do two.
>>748869468USE PARAGRAPHS YOU FUCKING IDIOT HOLY SHIT
>>748869506Anon, I did. I just didn't do reddit spacing. Are you okay?
>>748869521>reddit spacingGo back you stupid fucking zoomer.
>>748869601>zoomerLmao I wish.
>>748869468Ah, good old making discourse impossible. The biggest complaints about every game don't have anything to do with wokeness. Wokeness is generally just the most obvious red flag that all the other more significant problems that actually matter will show up. But you know that, you disingenuous corporate cock sucker.
>>748868680>just play algoslop but dont talk to other people playing algosloppeak goyim
>>748868680Yes, but not for silent hill n
>>748868680The implication that I stopped buying AAA games because the internet told me to is nothing less than a despicable lie. If you want to blame a specific entity then the only possible culprit is Bioware.
>>748869468Woke is bad in general, a game can be good despite being woke, by overcoming it and the other shortcomings. Also the "culture war" started with forcing niggers and women into everything and normalising troons. To blame the people reacting to gay shit, is missing the forest for the trees.
>>748869521>unironically avoiding proper spacing techniques because you're afraid of some retard replying with "reddit spacing" Eh, on second though, I have no reason to complain. I don't read badly formatted posts in any case.
>>748868680Yeah. I never understood faggots that impulse buy or ignore based on hearsay when you can get all the info you need to make an informed decision extremely easily. However; if "stop listening to grifters/whiners and make your own fucking opinion" is an epiphany, you're already retarded, so it's understandable to let people make your decisions for you..
>>748868680yeahbut not if you play anything made after 2015
>>748868680>play game you think looks interesting>have funI don't see the controversy or why this absolutely fucking cretin (likely (You) was trying to advertise this as a revelation. Doesn't work for AAA games tho.
>>748869521He is likely a phoneposter so it's a gigantic wall of text without spaces.
>woke marketing staple of ppl just hate it because they are racist/sexist/not gay/no groomersIt's just a very mid game that kills its own horror and atmosphere with tedium.It's not even horribly woke, but we got here because marketing decided that putting wheelchairedniggerlesbians into shit as a last ditch effort to sell a few copies more of a surefire flop. Thanks for being that transparent which games are actually low effort.
>>748869746>The biggest complaints about every game don't have anything to do with wokeness. Flat out lie. Look at all the big right wing media critique channels. It's ALL about how it's bad because woke. Woke woke woke woke. It's all they ever fucking talk about. This shit has 33 million views. >>748869936I mean part of it was also because explaining this shit takes a million words, and doing proper paragraphs or "reddit spacing" as spergs call it, "costs" more extra characters. In generally I'm for reddit spacing to make long posts more readable. I merely pointed out that I didn't use it, but did use paragraphs when anon complained. >>748869817Anon, you are conflating "I don't like it" with "it's bad". You not liking woke is not the same as woke being bad. Also:>forcing niggers and women into everythingNiggers and women and troons are part of everyday life, as such it's normal, actually that they also start appearing in our media. You can be free to dislike it, but acting like other people also wanting to play means you are justified in throwing a tantrum, makes you a turbo retard.
>>748870165>t. Sherlock HolmesGreatest detective on /v/
I mean there are multiple angles from which you can look at it and it obviously doesn't apply to games in general but here's a list of truthnukes for you>if you are reading this shitpost you are not actively playing video gamespeople who engage with their favorite hobby don't feel the need to shitpost about it with other random online retards, they just keep doing what they enjoy, and all the need for discussion and socialization is fulfilled by talking to your actual irl friends that you know and whom you trust>like what you likeI have my fair share of 6/10 rated (by the hivemind) games that are 9/10 for me, I don't care what ecelebs or xitter think about it, unless we know each other irl your opinion is irrelevant to me>if you don't like something just ignore itthere's no reason to waste a single picosecond typing a seething post about something if you can move on to something you enjoy instead of giving attetion to grifters and things that make you mad as fuckcan't afford the new console? fine, move onthe new woke slop game (asmonshart said so) is bad? fine, who gives a fuck, move on>Sturgeon's law, 90% of everything is garbage by defaultaim to develop your taste and preferences, not playing video games (despite pretending to be a gamer) is as bad as consuming everything without thinking, to develop a taste you need two steps: getting irl experience to enhance your immersion and trying different things in general (which requires curiosity)>ultimately games are optional luxury productsI'm forever grateful for the ability to chill and play vidya while being extra comfy, many don't have it, I can't fathom how someone could be aware of this and still spend his time bitching about literal manchild digital toys and take them so seriously to the point of defining their personality all around them
>>748868680this but with all online discourse
>>748870224>in generallyI'm gonna fucking kill myself.
>>748868680NOOOoOOooOOOoOooOOOOOOOoooo!!!!! tHeN HooWW Do i wIN mY INTERWEBZZZ aRGuMentS!!!11!!IM SuuPOsed To RAGE aT GaemS, NOT pLAy THem!!!!!11!
>>748868680do these retards think people actually love these games but shit on them to be cool and edgy online?
you can listen to gaming discourse online. just don't be retarded and have your perspective shifted by other people. make your own judgments, buy what you think is interesting.
>>748868680yeah this place and other outrage fueled social media is poison for the most part. miserable people trying as hard as they can to convince others to be miserable.
>>748869376This, coming here is like visiting the zoo
>Please play Silent Hill Nigger
>>748870385throwin peanuts at the monkeys
>>748870356The reality is that most of /v/ is regurgitating opinions of streamers and they don't actually play games. Look at any FF8 thread>OH YEAH IT'S FUN TO SIT THERE AND DRAW FOR HOURS>IT PUNISHES YOU FOR LEVELINGAnyone with half a brain wouldn't play that way or have issues with the scaling, but some streamer complained about it, so they repeat it endlessly. The amount of /v/ that's in South America or Eastern Yurop and only have Huawei phones is staggering.
>>748868680I use the same tactic that I've used for the last 28 years. I look at footage, consider the gameplay shown, listen to the music (not that many games today have much in their trailers and they sound like generic blockbuster Hollywood film #2039), and look for specific elements in the art/look of the game. If the trailer fails to meet those checks, I immediately classify it as a piece of shit and move on. It works pretty well, most times I assess the game correctly and rarely am I wrong (I was wrong about RoboCop Rogue City, great game). Many of these games fail to pass these checks. Silent Hill brownfall is one of those.
>>748870224>Anon, you are conflating "I don't like it" with "it's bad".Woke is objectively bad, it's injecting rancid politics into video games, using them at tools to preach and convert.>Niggers and women and troons are part of everyday lifeNot where I live these days thankfully. This summer some local guys burnt down some houses belonging to the rare shitskins, like they did last year and the year before that.
>>748870224>troons are part of everyday life>t.mutt
>>748870542Niggers you retard.Video games in general are expensive and responsible normies aren't going to spend close to a hundred bucks on every shitty FotM video game. You know who is notoriously bad with financial planning and spends tons of money on retarded items to flex their wealth? womenBut because everyone knows they don't actually play vidya, Konami decided to market to nogs instead.
>>748868680the cuck mindset
>>748870468>you have to play games like a retard without a functioning brain to have fun with it
>>748868937I played it as a kid and I thought it was shit. I havent changed my opinion because I have always been correct. Bioshock 2 best bioshock btw.
>>748870224>Niggers and women and troons are part of everyday life, as such it's normalThey aren't apart from women and that's disingenuous pretending that women existing means they should replace men in a male dominated hobby.
>>748870224>Anon, you are conflating "I don't like it" with "it's bad".You're separating subjective concepts for no reason.If I don't like something, it's bad. If I like it, it's good. There's no objective good thing and no objective bad thing.>>748870743Except the people complaining are doing that. If you play FF8 like a sensible person, you're not constantly drawing, and level scaling doesn't cause problems.It's like saying you had trouble with connect the dots because you didn't want to do it in order like a retard without a functioning brain.
Why are there multiple threads up with this exact topic and game right now? Hmmm
>>748870679>But because everyone knows they don't actually play vidya, Konami decided to market to nogs instead.They aren't marketing to niggers, if they were he'd be a cool nigger and the game genre would be different. This is marketed towards whites.
>>748870545>it's injecting rancid politics into video games,Politics have always been part of art. It's pretty much impossible to divorce politics from art, because the artists live in a world that is all politics. Like, even you demanding a game free of "woke" politics, would inherently be a political act. >using them at tools to preach and convert.Not really. Not saying it never happens, people on both sides make propaganda slop sometimes, but largely people just include shit they know, because it is normal for them. A game with black hero is not trying to "preach and convert" any more than Division 2 is trying to preach and convert uses to a right wing cause. Not every inclusion is automatically preaching or converting. You just see it as such, because you are opposed to it so strongly. You are essentially the Karen, telling Tarantino to stop making such violent films because it will rub off on the children.
>>748870679Ah yes, they're well known for spending huge amounts of money on games that do not involve a ball in some way. Good point.
>>748868680No, because what if it actually sucks and you wasted your money and time. Just because you went into the game without doing research does not automatically make it good.
>>748870840Delete them, wannabe janny tranny.
>>748870861I like this painting, but I cannot see the politics at play here.
>>748868680kinda pathetic that screen burn staff are shilling their flopped game on a mongolian basket weaving forum
>>748869746That tweet you keep letting do your thinking for you is also making discourse impossible, funnily enough.
>>748870976It says that horse fuckers are bigoted cishet nazi alt-right chuderinos.
>>748870776>male dominated hobby.Anon why do you think it's a male dominated hobby? Because that second X chromosome makes you inherently like video games less?Spoiler: it's a male dominated hobby, because everything used to pander to men, because men used to have oppressive power over women and this is echoing through all fields in our life.Take lawyers for instance. Women used to not be allowed to be lawyers. Guess what people said when the first women wanted to become lawyers? "Ever heard of a woman lawyer? Lawyering is a mans job". It was never a male dominated field because women just aren't suited to be lawyers, but because they were excluded. Same with video games. Video games were made for boys, boys were bought video game systems, girls got the barbie playhouse for christmas. Girls were never encouraged to play video games by society and media in the same way that boys were, resulting in fewer female gamers. We unjustly shut women out from the hobby, and now you are trying to use the fact that because of the resulting low number of women, women should STAY out of the hobby. That makes no sense.
>>748871024w-where does it say that...?
Modern audience boutta kick in any moment now...surely...
>>748870356Half you little jamboys don’t even play games.
>>748871063>make the hobby shittier so women can partakeam I supposed to support that? l o l
>>748870861>Politics have always been part of art.Not an argument. The concerted push since early/mid 2010s have been trying to program people not to say x or y is good/bad. Then shoving niggers and women in the games without political arguments is trying to normalise rather than mock/argue.>Not really>A game with black hero is not trying to "preach and convert"Yes, really. A game with a nigger as the MC is trying to normalise niggers, as if they aren't violent and criminal, and also is removing the representation of white men as they are seen as the enemy in corporate zeitgeist.
>>748868680the idea is right, but that nigga is a shillno one can see modern pozzware and think its goodI do play games based on what I think about them after watching some gameplay videos, but I also see pozz and nope
>>748871249>The concerted push since early/mid 2010s have been trying to program people not to say x or y is good/bad.It's older than that. Passive-aggressive faggots hate criticism.
>>748868680shant be playing the nigger game shill
>>748871063>Anon why do you think it's a male dominated hobby?Men play video games because they enjoy them. Women do not enjoy video games and the ones they do are radically different like Sims.
>>748868838>standards are when you only listen to other people's opinions and never experience something personallyyup, I'm on /v/ alright
>>748870806>If I don't like something, it's bad. If I like it, it's good. There's no objective good thing and no objective bad thing.Normally, I would agree with you, if we're just talking about generic media critique. Saying "Avatar 2 is bad" is pretty much the same as saying "I don't like Avatar 2". The nuance here is important, because the large conversation is about the fact that people are finding bad media, then look for woke concepts in that media, and argue that therefore the media is bad because it is woke. In this sense, you would have to actually prove that woke is "bad" in the sense that it is the reason why the entire rest of the game is "bad", because of the mere existence of the "woke". That is why I pointed out the difference here between woke being "bad" and "not liking woke". Because it is absolutely fine to say "I don't like woke". But if you use "woke is bad" as the reason why Suicide Squad sucked, instead of pointing at the actual reasons suicide squad sucked (Single player studio being forced to make always online multiplayer looter shooter games as a service slop with battlepasses and seasons), then I'm gonna call you retarded. Because you could take all the "woke" out of suicide squad, and it would still be a phenomenally bad game. So clearly it is not the reason why the whole thing is bad. It is just one aspect that anon doesn't like. Again: Which is fair not to like, it's just retarded to pretend that it's the reason for everything bad in every piece of media, ever.
If your enjoyment of a game hinges on what other people think of the game, you're simply incapable of forming opinions of your own.>people said bad things about a game I was interested in playing>I played it anyways>WHAT, THIS GAME I WAS INTERESTED IN WAS ACTUALLY INTERESTING TO ME???Very profound. You were already predisposed to like it, you merely confirmed your biases
>>748871250Nah hes pretty right. You wouldn't even know what "pozz" was without someone giving you your opinions. Your entire worldview is based on what random internet people have told you to think.
>>748868680no, xir (xher/zhem) is wrong and must ack
>>748868946>stop noticing things
>>748868680A lot of normalfags seem to believe being a snob or disliking stuff must be practiced, like it's a face you put on after years of working on it. This is because they live their normalfag lives in this way, over-socialized, basing everything they do off consensus. While this is certainly true on /v/, particularly among younger posters who indeed view this place as the last stop to "fit in" before they must concede they are an unlikable oddball, the reality is some people simply can't sit through certain media, especially the modern kind, because it's unintelligent material developed by cynical people for unintelligent, lowest common denominator audiences. Differences in fluid intelligence, pattern recognition, openness to experience and prior exposure produce different boredom thresholds and different reward functions for narrative complexity, thematic density, formal innovation and so on. In short, it does not challenge them. It feels predictable and dull at best, mortifying at worst. And if the normalfag actually thinks to ask the question "Well why do you inherently feel some way while I don't?" the resulting answer will trample all over the egalitarian notion of "We're all the same" that those same people trying to sell you bad media desperately, constantly try to insist is reality, and not just a complex pulley system of money-handlers and megalomaniacal institutions.
>>748871357Not him, but yes I would. Why do you believe people are incapable of making judgments for themselves?
>>748871063Nah I think it literally is the second X chromosome makes you inherently like video games less, or rather that the Y chromosome makes you like them moreSame for going fast, killing animals, and dying stupidly
>play games that look uninteresting to youWho the fuck does this?
>>748871063>Because that second X chromosome makes you inherently like video games less?Yes.
>>748868834irl adblock
I think it's funny that you've resorted to...oh will you look at that, self-righteous preaching, again. What a shocker.Gamers really aren't your audience. It's over. Now leave.
but on 4chan you dont go "oh wow a pol shitposter shitposted a game, I better not play it" now its a good idea to not listen to places with shitposters but they never mattered for what game one should play anyway
It is nice to see this game fail with 8k peak players. Get them niggers out of Scotland.
>>748871063Video games are overt competition, which women statistically dislike
>>748871063>Girls were never encouraged to play video games>Girls are literally so stupid that even if they want to do something, they CANNOT unless someone tells them to do itWhat goes on in your mind?
>>748868937Bioshock infinite was only half decent with the 1999 mode and its a crime you had to beat the game once to unlock it. Bioshock 1 was similar with the mode disabling the revive chambers making it better. I dont remember 2 having the difficulties making it any better, the fights in general were the best in the franchise. Traps actually felt fulfilling.
>>748871535A few gfs of mine who wanted to try found they got motion sickness from playing FPS games.
>>748871357I don't need someone to tell me what my opinions are, I'm not interested in what random faggot online thinks about a game being this or that. Having to deal with disingenuous faggots like you on a regular basis who are trying to tell me that I don't have eyes or ears and I'm simply 'making things up to be mad at'. Kill yourself.
>>748871364More like >stop noticing posts made by subhuman lunaticsThanks for the suggestion, anon! That's a policy I can get on board with.
>>748870871You're thinking of euros. Niggers will buy CoD, shonenshit, and comic book shit in addition to sports games. It's european normies that only play Fifa.
>>748871594Pot, kettle.
>>748871528The studio might get shuttered tomorrow but at least they owned the chuds.
>>748868937>I played Bioshock Infinite as a kid
>>748871063Imagine just lying. Video games are attractive to men by their very nature. There's nothing that inherently panders to men in them. It's the fact that women don't find them interesting. Making them suddenly pink and full of trannies didn't bring women. Why? It's because they don't like video games. The studios are trying as hard as they can to capture this secret majority audience that, by the numbers, can only realistically be a minority. They try to turn games and franchises into things they're not because "these people really want to like these things, but only if they're completely unrecognizable.">This calls to mind when Lionel made pastel colored trains and train cars to appeal to females. The effort bombed, the sets were recalled and re-dine as standard models, and those pastel ones that survived are rare collectors items. Gary Gygax said that. Can we rape and destroy things women are interested in? Maybe make dating a boxing match, and whoever beats you gets to marry you.
>>748871689Women do like video games but very particular ones, like the Sims or Animal Crossing or Project Zomboid with all the zombies turned off.
>>748871647>We are owning you which is why we are losing our jobsSame energy as if you kill your enemies they win.
>>748871063>all these worthless responses For once, I'd like the retards on this board to prove that they're actually capable of defending their opinions.
>>748868946>Everyone says game is shit>Half the people who ignore the internet, and play it anyways say it's shit>>748868893>Dude it's secretly good all 2,000 of us are having a blast!Townfall sucks, Silent Hill isn't coming back man. >>748869468Post your hours in Mixtape, Dustborn, 1348, Townfall, Concord, Road 96, Inquisition, Sub Zero, Forspoken, Suicide Sqaud Wolverine, or one of these woke games that you claim are secretly amazing, and only got panned by the far right.When you set out to make a woke game, it can't be good. You have to slather yellow paint on every surface for "accessibility" you have to implement the DSP stink trail for the "differently abled" you can't have any punchy dialogue at risk of offending someone. You can't have anything bad happen to women, or minorities in your story, and your story has to consist mostly of women, and minorities. You can't have any of your non women, or minority characters doing anything good either.These restrictions make it effectively impossible to write a good woke game.
>>748868893hey its chad nickelbad!
>>748871734There are women that like games that guys are into as well, but they're a minority. The publishers are trying to attract everyone who doesn't play video games by ruining them, forsaking a strong majority that DOES like them.
>>748871734My gf will only play princess maker and ck3 she says any other game makes her dizzy. She prefers watching
>>748871630eh, fair enough.
>>748871764>can reply to any of them and make an argument so he just calls them out in a passive aggressive manner and tells himself he wonEmbarrassing
>>748871734>Women do like video games>the video games happen to be cozy games, gay shit, horror games, or FotM bullshit>no interest in anything else unless they can directly influence a long running IP and strip out the things that made it good and appealing to menRiiiiight.gif
>>748871794You probably understand already that this isn't accidental. Investment firms and video game companies with "former" FBI employees do not squander billions of dollars making the same mistake for nearly two decades. When young men (who let's face it are mostly white) have places to shoot the shit and do things they enjoy with a tangible barrier of entry, well that's basically the same thing as a beer hall, now isn't it? That's dangerous and must be destroyed. Everything surrounding that basic logic is pure fluff.
>>748871734Yeah when people talk about women being gatekept from video games or something what they actually mean is that women aren't choosing to play the types of games they want women to play. It's a weird mindset.
>>748868680I play games that look interesting and then read the discourse and watch clips of retards to laugh at the foids, troons, niggers, and zoomoids. Makes me really fucking happy when others are upset
>>748871906But men should be buying those games or they're bigots.
>>748868680most media is better going in blind, yes. I've enjoyed objectively shit movies way more than highly regarded films that I went over with a fine-tooth comb to see if I would enjoy or not
>>748871772I'd be a liar if I didn't say the opinions of others definitely influence my perception of games I've never played. No one is above the influence of others. That's why the best practice is ALWAYS to pirate your vidya before purchasing it.

>>748871357People like this do more to make people dislike the games they want people to like than anything else. You sometimes wonder if it is deliberate or just really bad autism.

>>748872070>You sometimes wonder if it is deliberate or just really bad autismI think they've been forced to buy people who have bought their previous worl and become zealots for those ideas.

>>748871357Why is so much of chuds mocking a game just showing the game then? Why would this image warp people's perception of a game? It doesn't tell people what to think about the faces shown. Why are people holding up their controllers in webms showing "gameplay" of games like Wolverine, Mixtape, and God of War? Are they saying anything to shape people's understanding of what they're being shown?When I post a picture of Musa saying how African Muslims treat women better, why is that image alone sufficient for people to form opinions?

By simple statistics, women make up a lot of the outsiders getting denied, but they complain vocally. Men also get rejected but they don't turn on their ring light and post online to bitch about it. Any perceived discrimination toward women that you're yapping about is deserved and brought on by them not accepting rejection quietly like a normal person. Stop being entitled

>>748873201The medium itself is not neutral either women read more than men do. And what they read is usually sex specific books. To say the medium itself is sex neutral is false, due to how the medium is consumed differently for each sex.
>>748873329I bet you believe the "55% of women play video games" stat (mobile games) and consider that meaningful lol they don't really like video games unless it's Pokemon, Sims, Valorant, DBD or BG3. they hate video games, if they didn't they wouldn't actively participate in ruining the hobby furtherfucking retard
>>748872150You are literally the only anon who gets it. I made the original post. and it's fucking laughable to see anons unironically try to claim that fucking video games is just a thing that inherently appeals to men. It's so fucking dumb. Of course the reason there is a divide, is the same reason pink is the girl color and blue is the boy color: Because of social conditioning. Being taught from a young age, by people, by marketing, by media: this is for boys, this is for girls.most video game heroes have been male. Even the prime example for a female video game hero: Samus Aran, being a woman was a fucking "OMG WHAT?" Twist for the end of her game. Women in video games for the longest time had just been "babes". Shit to rescue. Something to be a prize for a boy playing the game. "Win the game, get the girl". And they say with a straight face: "Nothing in video games panders to men". lmao. How can anyone take these fucks serious? What's the point in arguing when they will just lie to your face, and then call you a liar for pointing out the bleeding obvious.
>>748873329Videogames try to pander to women, they just don't consume them despite the pandering.

It's just an echo chamber for modern misfits.
>>748872905>Right, but videogames are an inherently gender neutral medium in same way MOVIES and MUSIC and BOOKS are inherently gender neutral mediums. The content of the game is what matters here, not the entire medium.Then what are you even upset about? If you're looking at the entire medium then there are already games being made for the female audience that women already play and have been playing for years. Those games are in completely different genres than the ones that men tend to buy but they still exist.

>>748873514Nice sociology 101 argument now go back to class and learn why it's retarded
>>748873630I don't need to samefag to tell you that you are wrong. You are not fucking biologically pre-programmed to like video games more than women you fucking sperg. Video game is "play". boys and girls enjoy play equally. Even if you are right in saying that *what* boys and girls play is biological, you would still be wrong. Because for this argument we can assume that you are absolutely 100% right that girls prefer playing house, and family, and barbies and drama, and boys prefer playing war and chase and conflict. Video games isn't "naturally" war and chase and conflict. Video games can be anything. The reason we have more video games with themes boys like, is because women were largely excluded from jobs where they could make decisions to make games that would appeal to girls and girls interests, and as such most games pandered to boys. Which resulted in vidya being a bigger hobby for boys and now men. So arguing that vidya is for boys, is circular logic. You only made games for boys, and then argued that vidya is not for girls, because mostly boys play vidya. If vidya had instead pandered more heavily to girls and not to boys, you would now be sitting here telling me how vidya is a faggy hobby for girls, and no real man should ever been caught dead with a video game. That's the social conditioning part.

>>748874084Proving a lie wrong is always gonna take more effort than just lying.I can say "men are inherently better drivers than men". But proving or disproving that (in a way that's more convincing than just saying "no" or "yes") will require you to write paragraphs and quote fucking statistics.It's why a pragerU video is 5 minute long, and a pragerU response video is 25 minutes minimum.
>>748874005A game being "woke" is an observation about the content of the game. The quality of a game is a judgement about, once again, the content of the game.If you believe that these two things, both directly related to the content of a given video game, share an even remotely comparable degree of relation as the appearance of an actor in films by year and random people drowning in pools then the retard is you.
>>748874386no, what you mean is psyopping everyone to believe a lie takes longer than telling a truth everyone already knows, you fucking midwit. Hence why you keep writing paragraphs

>>748874005Samefag here: I literally can not emphasize enough how much "just noiticing things" and "pattern recognition" posts are deliberately designed to make you skip asking if one actually has anything to do with the other. That's the whole culture war grift. Saying two things next to each other, until your brain thinks they are connected. To the point that you, reading this right now, think I'm a huge fucking dishonest faggot, for pretending it isn't related. But it fucking isn't. It's just put next to each other again and again and again and again.
>>748874745Yeah its funny that some tourists here are actually trying to debate these troons, must be their first time
>>748874483"woke" can be anything a right winger doesn't like. A mere capable woman in a piece of media can be enough to label a piece of media "woke". The reason most media is bad, are reasons completely divorced from woke. Such as a game being derivative looter shooter slop. Or an Overwatch clone coming out 6 years after Overwatch was relevant. But all this gets tied over and combed into "woke". Why does it have these bad elements? Well because there's also a black guy in it. Which makes it woke. You could do the same with say, "go male, go fail..e" not as catchy. But you get the Idea. Take any piece of media that sucks, and point out that there are men in there. Or that men were involved in the making. You will have an INCREDIBLY strong correlation. But does that prove that having a man in media is the reason it is bad?Notice how the anti-woke channels don't talk about the woke games and movies that are doing well. Avengers Endgame had a thousand times more diversity and a cringe ass "girls get it done" scene, famously parodied by the boys. Yet what is the most talked about woke marvel movie? Captain Marvel. Was that shit because it was particularly feminist? Not even. It was just a very badly written film. But Brie Larson made dumbass anti-male comments and now "woke feminism" is the reason this not even feminist film flopped. Supposedly. Star Wars Acloyte was woke because it had lesbian space witches. Star Wars Andor actually had lesbian space antifa fighters. Which one did right wing channels talk about more?Failures get talked about more, and they are "more" woke. Popular stuff? "barely woke" barely get talked about. Just so you form that connection in your brain.
Notice how it's all long winded moral grandstanding instead of showing the game's good points
>>748873514Black women never play video gamesWomen do not like video games at all. Even women who grew up playing video games with their brothers don't have any interest in them when they get older.

No, they don't have to be part of anything because quotas are why these games are trash. If you create a game and the first question you ask yourself is "how can i include the blacks and the purples and the etc etc" you've already failed as a creator because your mind is buckbroken by woke the same way some chud's mind is buckbroken by pol if he sees a female character and thinks it's tranny propaganda.The quotas don't stop at the racial quotas in the game which already are retarded but they also extend down to the hiring practices and end up creating steamy piles of excrement down the line like the concords, wolverines etc.>look bro, we're making games for everybody that's why we're including everybodyThat's why the game is shit, it's a game for nobody. Now go back to your capitalism overlords and tell them green line must go up because seeing their hundreds of millions of dollars go up in flames is entertaining. So just for that purpose i agree that you have to include every black, tranny, woman, whale, pig, giraffe, etc in your "game", just so i can see more billions of dollars go up in smoke. I wanna see that happen so many times that the venture capitalists and "investors" and all the other cockroaches go bankrupt or at least view the video game industry as a Very bad bet, so that games go back to what they used to be decades ago, made by people who were actually passionate about making video games.tl;dr SLAY GURRRL WOKE GOOD CHUDS BAAAAD!!

I think a lot of people are just miserable in certain areas of their lives so they can't have fun with video games anymore. Therefore the only thing left is just to hate everything out of spite. It's probably excruciatingly painful to see people enjoy simple stuff when in your mind it's absolute garbage that should never be touched. Essentially misery loves company and hate is easier to produce than questioning whatever you can improve about your own situation.

If I write proper leftist analysis, and don't sprinkle in a couple niggerfaggots, these retards will reply "nigger" or "tranny" to my post, thinking it will trigger me. By speaking their language, they at least engage, even if usually they can not be motivated to think. >because quotas are why these games are trash. >how can i include the blacksSo, do you have any evidence that this is how it is happening? Or is that just how you feel? Because it's just as likely that they are just making games, and when deciding on a character, that might just be what sprung to mind as a good character. You are operating from the perspective that for everyone in the world, white male comes first, and you can only deviate from that, by sacrificing creative quality somewhere else. But truthfully: I can just as easily create a story around a black lesbian, as I can about a white married dude.>hiring practicesFun fact: This is propaganda that you have been fed. Culture war faggots will have you believe that hiring quotas means companies will hire unqualified gangniggers who can't read, over highly qualified white people. This is not the case. The way it works is that a company looks at their local demographic of qualified candidates. And if the number of hired people of a minority background is noticably lower than the %of qualified minority workers in the area, then in the next round of hiring when they have two EQUALLY QUALIFIED candidates, the one with a minority background gets a leg up.The Idea that quotas inherently lower the quality of a company is just lies. It's just shit racists say, because they believe that non-white people are inherently inferior.>thinking I'd be into capitalismOh boy or brother, have you got me wrong. This btw, is another lie that the chuds tell you.

If you're witty enough, you can actually elaborately troll the political ragebait tourists that infect this board really easily to highlight how braindead they are. Wait for a new game to come out, lurk its threads day 1, and make up some elaborate lie (or even better, half-truth) on how "woke" the game is or how easy it is or something. Within the very same thread you'll get people 1:1 regurgitating what you say as if they played the game and it's true. And then when people who have actually played the game call them on their bullshit, just reply and call them trannies/jews/etc.It's actually shocking that this works and how many people will start parroting what you say. There are people here who will carry a lie they read in a day 1 thread for a game with them for years, posting it in every single thread for the game that they find. And they don't care to be corrected. It would be so easy to dismiss them as bots, but sometimes when they get shit on enough they'll have full blown meltdowns in the threads. It's wild.

Were there any big right wing channels that made videos like: "Okay, guys concord is not really woke just because of the character design" or even just "Yeah the character design is the main reason concord failed, it failed because of [actual reasons concord fucking sucked]"? Are there any right wing media critique channels that do not put the sloppification of marvel movies entirely at the feet of woke? Any that do not conflate being bad directly with how woke it is?Any pants might be a grifter, but he's indistinguishable from all the other right wing, anti woke grifting ass youtube and twitch channels. That's the entire right wing media sphere buddy. If you had a counter example, you would name one. But you can't. Because the wing strategy to being called out, is to smile and disingenuously disavow. "Oh someone is calling this dude out for his grifting? Disawov, disawov" But you fuckers don't mean it. You still watch 'em. you still support their message. You just know when a faggot is bad optics, it plays best to act like he's a lone grifter, instead of what he actually is: Exactly the same as all the others.

Tim Pool, The Quartering, Andypants, LegendaryDrops, Criticaldrinker, Nerdrotic, All just fucking pushing what their audience wants to hear: "Everything is woke, they're coming for everything you love,they're gonna ruin everything, keep watching me and more importantly my ads to know what the next game or movie is that they're gonna ruin by putting a woman in it!" Hell, Even non media critique for right wingers is all fucking grifts. Every "tradwife" channel is a fucking lie. "I'm such a tradwife, look at me, baking bread for hubby". from a woman who is running her own media business and likely making more than her Husband. If she's a tradwife, she wouldn't be making tradwife videos. Or Homesteading videos are all just fucking lying by omission. They're not just "living off grid", they're usually wealthy fuckers, who paid ungodly amounts of money to finance their "off grid" youtube channel. The point being: Even if andypants is a grifter: his content is literally no different from any supposed "actual" right wing media critique channel.
>>748877361>right wing channels>lists lolcows
>>748868937lol same.There’s a YouTuber that doesn’t interact with muh discourse much that got dogpiled for unironically liking Veilguard as like an 8/10
>>748877610Mortismal? I think he got shit on for saying Veilguard was his personal GOTY and the best in the franchise more than he did his score of it.
>>748877571See. Exactly what I said. Any actual right wing channel or personality is unable to be used as an example of right wing behaviour, because it's so easy to disingenuously disavow them. It doesn't matter if they get millions of views, it doesn't matter if countless anons repeat their exact talking points, every fucking day. All you have to do is say "Oh him? He's not really one of us. Now don't mind us as we continue to hang out with him, keep watching his videos, and don't actually disagree with him in any way shape or form".
>>748876620Very telling that you treat someone telling you to make your own opinions as an attack
>>748877885Maybe because many right wingers don't actually watch Youtube channels. See, I'm subscribed to the local newspaper which is delivered daily to my house and I use to start a fire in my oven after I'm done reading in and than fuck off to work where I shitpost on 4chins on slow days.I don't really care that silent hill nigger has put a nigger on the cover even if silent hill games don't usually put the protag on the cover. Only 3 and homecoming did that, not a fan of both. I care that silent hill n is a tedious game that wastes my time and the nigger doesn't do anything to make it more or less enjoyable as it already isn't.
>>748869817Okay Autist whisperer
>>748877885This level of brainrot is morbidly fascinating, it's like you can't even comprehend anything outside your own warped skull
>>748868680Yes
The difficult thing is that the shallow indicators right-wing Amerimutts look for (niggers, LGBT flags or whatever) also end up being red flags for the game being shit. Or made with wrong priorities in mind. At least in the case of AAA games, this is almost always the case. That said, local right-wing mixed-up Amerimutts (yes, even you reading this post) are subhumans filled with poisonous ressentiment that eats away all the joy in their hollow mutt-lives.Two things can be true at the same time.
>>748878138>make your own opinions >here's a pic of that game very few people like btwEven a retarded 7 year old knows you're eating shit.
>>748876620>Turns out the let people enjoy things crowd can't handle it when other people don't enjoy their slopThey only enjoy stuff other people enjoy, that's the thing few people get. They don't actually enjoy video games, they're playing video games because other people are. When other people stop playing video games, they too will stop, because their personality is "agree with herd".
>>748868680I've played a lot of games /v/ insisted was bad and woke or whatever like Beast of Reincarnation and Baldur's Gate 3. I've learned that /v/ will doompost every game unless it has half naked barbie dolls front and center so yeah.Currently playing fire emblem and loving it. Ain't no SRPG hits the same.
>>748869468Except that's bullshit. Take 343 and the newest Halos for instance.>343 hired a new guy>Guy is adamantly ANTI-gun, can't stand being around guns, can't stand looking at them>clearly he was hired for a fitting job like plantlife checker or something, right?>LOL FUCKIN NO he's the new guy in charge of GUNPLAYAnd look at that, the new Halos feel like total dogshit to play because of faggots like him and now 343 are down the shitter. So why hire him? How is it woke to hire this guy? Because they didn't pick the best person for the job, they picked a faggot that'd be a good little boy that wouldn't make the women and troons feel bad about being part of things. They looked at feelings over game dev ability and chose the worst fit for a GUNPLAY programmer imaginable AND KNEW IT. Why did they choose him and don't play dumb?
But there nothing in the past 8 years that I want to play...
>>748868680shockingly so
>>748878353>the shallow indicators right-wing Amerimutts look for (niggers, LGBT flags or whatever) also end up being red flags for the game being shit. They do not. You believe this, because of a long ongoing psyop, that keeps listing these things together as if they are related. So now when you see a game being shit, and you see a nigger, or LGBT flags, you go "ah of course, all the signs were there". But as previously pointed out: This is correlation without causation. Every time a game is bad for any reason (and for 4chan anything below a 9/10 is trash). the "shallow indicators" as you correctly identify them, get brought up. Every time a game is good or popular, these dame indicators get downplayed. Cyberpunk for instance, is by all accounts a very woke game. But people on this website will continuously try to claim that it is not woke at all, by any means. One favourite way to claim cyberpunk as a non-woke game is to point at the ripperdoc "fingers", who is a bad guy in the game, who takes advantage of underpriviledged poor people, mostly prostitutes, but is also himself "queer coded" as they say. As if something can not be woke, if they depict a queer person as bad. So you correctly identified how shallow and meaningless it is to find "woke" in media, but you are still thinking that it has anything to do with the overall quality or priorities of the game. Forespoken wasn't shit because having a black protagonist meant they didn't have the creative energy to make the rest of the game good, or that picking a black protagonist is an indicator that they are unable to come up with a satisfying game. Plenty of media has black protagonists and is actually good. It just means that they made a shit game, and that shit game happened to have a black protagonist. Like you said: these indicators are shallow. They are meaningless. If it hadn't been a black protagonist, it would have been something else. Like the quippy humor.
>>748878865>343 hired a new guy>Guy is adamantly ANTI-gun, can't stand being around guns, can't stand looking at them>look this up>it's liesOh wow. big surprise.
>>748879028Anon... this started by the marketing team declaring "no our game isn't shit you are just racist bigots" while their games were actually shit.People don't fucking care about woke if the game is good and people got really good into spotting the marketing team trying to guilt trip them again. Stop making niggers even more hated by using them to sell shit. It's that easy.
>>748868680Sure, that's how I've always done it. Played through Townfall since I like the Silent Hill series as a whole. Was a bit of slog but that won't stop me from trying to 100% it.
>>748879028In my defense, I said almost always, for AAA games. But yeah, that might be still overstating it, okay. Cyberpunk is a curious case. Maybe you saw that one dysgenic chuddie years ago who was claiming the game is not political, lol. What the fuck did he play?I guess to chuds like that Johnny Silverhand going after corporations is non-political, cause they don't realize their right-wing politicians serve those corporations.
>>748878794How dare you anon? Stop enjoying things right now!!! Join us in misery.
>>748879218>But yeah, that might be still overstating it, okay.Honestly: I don't fucking blame you. This "go woke go broke" shit is everywhere. You hear it all the time. They are trying tirelessly to tie "woke" and "shit media" together. So even seeing how low the bar is to calling something "woke" and realizing in your head that it's bullshit, doesn't always stop your brain from going: "Okay but sometimes..." Even if there is no actual evidence that the two are connected. That's the power of constant propaganda.>who was claiming the game is not politicalThis happens a lot actually. People claiming that something political is not political. Sometimes it's for the reason I mentioned, to downplay good "woke" games, like Cyberpunk, or Baldurs Gate, or Hades or whatever. Sometimes it's cowardice from the creators. Division 2 for instance leans right wing, but despite having created a game about special agents restoring law and order via lethal force in a post terror US, the creators refuse to say that it is a "political" game. Even more cowardly is David Cage and his team making "Civil Rights: An Android story" with Detroit become human, and absolutely refusing to admit that it's a political, or a civil rights story.In general I think the more popular a game is, the more likely someone is to claim that it's not actually political. GTA comes to mind, you mentioned cyberpunk, Bioshock, God of War, Deus Ex, Metal Gear, Fallout, all political games considered not very political. Sometimes even by the developers themselves.
>>748868680Sorta. Reviews back in the age of magazines legitimately helped avoid the pits of gen 4-6 shovelware, of which there was a surprising amount, especially on snes, PS1, and PS2. That said, they were always biased (no different than today) and some of my best gaming memories are on shovelware/licenced titles (bugs bunny lost in time, robot wars, daredevil derby/supersonic racers).
>>748868680>you will totally slurp the wokeslop if you go off of 4chan!No.
>>748879104>wokefaggot lies about proven event not being true because it's not something he can disproveDid you expect me to just go "hurr black character = bad = woke" instead of pointing to actual issues born from your politics addiction, faggot?Stop hiring speds that can't code. stop hiring jeets that can't code. Stop making shit games full of Baby's First Game mistakes. Also OPTIMIZE YOUR FUCKING GAMES. Anything over 100gb is dogshit.
>>748870410>not Silent Higger
>>748868680No. You are the ultimate goycattle specimen if you let online discorse affect your enjoyment
>>748868680>Listening to 4chan after 2014 and steve bannon sticking his dick in itDid it to yourself
>>748868778And yet people can't figure it out.
>>748868680Only if you stick to old games.
>>748876041Shit product that has even less gameplay than sony walking sims
>>748869468Stop thinking about it and obey
So... how many people did you convince?Was this a good use of your time?
>>748868680even better if you don't look for /v/'s opinion on the game
>>748869468tl dr, even ignoring the mc skin color the game still sucks donkey ass
>>748880685suzu sex
Name ONE game you found on your own, that genuinely has gameplay, which you enjoyed and finished within the last 3 yeats.
>>748880070Anon of course I can disprove it. Here we go:The claim>New guy>hates guns>can't stand being around guns>can't stand looking at them>got put in charge of GUNPLAYHere's the evidence: Pic related. It's Nick Treitman saying that he could not work on a game that GLORIFIES modern guns, like CoD BF or RB6, and that he struggled with Halo but the weapons are pretty Sci-Fi. So that's proving the anon a lie right there. It's not "he can't stand the sight of guns". He very specifically can not stand games that glorify guns. Which is not nearly the same as "can not stand the sight of guns." But hey the lie doesn't end there!The imagine claims he was the new "Creative designer". for Halo Studios. Guess what? Creative designers, are not really "in charge of gunplay". creative designers, do as the name implies: creative design. This can have to do *with* guns, but is not the same as "being in charge of gunplay". But it gets even better: I can not find any evidence that he even was creative designer. From what I can tell, he was in fact: A producer at halo studios. Is a producer in charge of gunplay? Even less so than a creative designer! A producer is in fact in charge of: fucking producing. That menas scheduling, coordination, communication, setting priorities on what needs to get done first etc. So again: Super not the guy who's in charge of gunplay. So why would anons think that? Well, when he got hired, anti-woke culture war faggots found his anti-gun tweet and then just said that this anti-gun guy is now in charge of your gun game. When he in fact: was not.That's what I mean man. Anti-wokeness is all fucking bullshit and lies man. They rely on you just not fucking googling for yourself. Wait till I tell you that a lot of what you know to be true about anita sarkeesian isn't really true either. But you ain't ready for that yet.
>>748868680I wouldn't know I never listened to other people's opinions
>>748880070>stop hiring jeets that can't code.Awwww. Awww anon. You're so adorable. Do you think people outsource to slopfarms in india because they're so "woke" about indians? That's adorable. That's so fucking cute!!! You little cootie patootie I almost don't wanna tell you the real reason. But spoiler: It's done for right wing reasons. ;)
This is called a "struggle session" by the wayUnfortunately it's a little subdued over the internet, typically you're supposed to be physically confronted so they can coerce you into accepting the right answers
>>748868680no
>>748880775>and that he struggled with HaloIt's funny how you didn't notice that that makes him just as pathetic. WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU STRUGGLED TO WORK ON HALO? Why is that faggot even there? Go work on the Sims or something.
>>748880685>>748880836Probably true, but youre still non-white.
>>748868680anon might be retarded
>>748868680>be an individualistic consumer cattle and start buying our woke shit already, you stupid goy!Nah.I set the standard ten times higher on loser leftoid jew games. I'd rather see the games and companies get fucked than to submit and engage in that gay humiliation ritual.
>>748868680>Stop listening to game discourse online>Just play shit that looks interesting based off of 15 mins of gameplay and trailers that you see>Immediately stop playing 90% of gamesThank me later anons
>>748871357>he is unable to notice and recognize patterns by himselfactual npc
>>748880943This, also how dare they charge $70 for something that's lower quality than the shit they were pushing out at $60. You want me to pay MORE for WORSE? Fuck no, make a good game and you get money. Using your gay nigger politics as a shield doesn't mean anything when the game's a piece of broken horse shit.
>>748871995I absolutely loved Legend of Dragoon as a kid.It's a dogshit game. 100% fucking bad.
>>748871357>You wouldn't even know what "pozz" was without someone giving you your opinionsNo, you would know what "pozz" was but you wouldn't have a collective name for it. You'd be able to pinpoint aspects that fall under pozz leading to shitty games but you wouldn't have the name pozz and would likely make up your own term for it.
